𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐖𝐄𝐁𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐑 Gender Affirming Couple/Relationship Therapy ✅ July 12, 2024 10:30 am – 12:30 pm PT(**Webinar is 120 min including time for Q&A.) Register Now and Save your Spot: https://lnkd.in/gyzsp4UT Dr. Giammattei will present the underlying framework that therapists who work with transgender or gender diverse (TGD) couples/relationships need to understand to provide gender-affirming treatment. This presentation is a follow-up to the Couples Conference 2024 where he shared ways to explore your own hetero/cis-normative beliefs around coupling and how these influence the models you choose, the questions you ask, and the interventions you use. In this webinar we will quickly run through these concepts and dive deeper into how to work with relationships where one or more partners is going through a gender-related transition. While TGD couples experience many of the same issues as other couples, we will explore the minority stress and unique stressors that impact these issues in profound ways. Dr. Giammattei will use experiential exercises and clinical vignettes to discover and utilize the basics of the gender-affirming approach to couple/relationship therapy. What we’ll cover: ✅ Describe at least 2 ways to address the impact of personal/clinical bias therapeutically. ✅ Identify at least 2 approaches to address hetero/cis-normative practices in traditional couple therapy models. ✅ Describe 2 ways the intersections of sexual orientation and gender identity may impact TGD couples/relationships. ✅ Identify at least 3 gender-affirmative approaches to address the impact of minority stress on TGD couples/relationships.
